Santa Fe Soup

The season of soup, sweaters, and scarves is upon us.

Fall is my favorite time of the year. It has all the best holidays and there is a cozy feeling in the air. I also get to wear my most stylish outfits when it's cool out. Bonus: the same clothes work for winter- just with more layers. This year I am actually going to read the pin I saved on how to tie scarves. Switching gears, this recipe is great for fall dinners. It makes a lot of leftovers and is a delicious vegetarian meal option.





Santa Fe Soup

Ingredients:
1 large onion
(optional 1 lb ground beef)
1 can of black beans
1 can of pinto beans

1 packet taco seasoning
1 packet ranch mix
3 cups water
